I'm having this same problem. Quite simple artwork file with 2 layers. One minute i saved it, all was good. The next minute i changed the position of one line, and it wouldn't save. I had done absolutely nothing in between these two points except move a line. I don't understand what could possibly go so wrong, and now i can't save it in any way.
The only thing i can do is copy and paste it into a new document, but as doing this pastes everything on the same layer, if i was to have more layers this would be a right pain in the backside to say the least!
Working on Mac os x 10.5.7, Illustrator CS3

Make sure Paste Remembers Layers is checked in the Layers panel flyout to move all the selected layers to new same-named layers in a new file.

this is getting extremely frustrating. I am not able to save OR Print anything in Illustrator. When I choose to save I get the message an unknown error has occured. When I print I get Cannot print the document. I've had CS3 for years and haven't had an issue until the recent months. I don't have zune. Tried the acrotray thing but can't find it. I've enabled and disabled the print spooler. I don't use media center. I have turned off PDF compatibility and so that helped my save issue but I still can't print. What the hell is Adobe doing?! Can't wait for my upgrade to Windows 7 to come so I can explore all kinds of fun new problems.

Not sure if anyone still following this thread (and shame on Adobe for not listening to their users), but was having this same issue (not being able to save from Illustrator CS3). My platform and apps installed:
- Win XP Pro
- Zune 4.02
- Windows Media Player 11
- Adobe CS3
After reading all your posts, here's what worked for me:
* disable acrotray.exe from starting up!!
None of the other items seem to be preventing Illustrator from saving. Can't tell you how many hours I've wasted trying to figure this out, reading posts, losing data, etc.
